    A LITTLE COURAGE. A LOT OF CRUST.

    The tray is yours.

    Pizza Man has a tray full of runaway toppings. Stretch fresh crust across the melted cheese to fence them in. Everything you box off without a topping bakes golden.

    Watch the two ends grow, then the empty side bake.

    1. Choose your direction. Across grows left and right; Down grows up and down. Tap the melted cheese to stretch. Right-click or R switches direction.
    2. Watch the toppings. If one hits growing crust, you lose one of three chances. A half that has already reached baked cheese or crust stays safe. No topping can cross finished crust.
    3. Serve the pizza. Reclaim 72% to clear the shift. Each shift gets more lively. Time carries into the next shift. Start with 100 seconds for the whole run; basil refills it up to 100. Time running out ends the run.
    4. Basil keeps you going. Each leaf adds 10 seconds in shifts 1–13, 8 in 14–23, 6 in 24–33, 4 in 34–43, and 2 from shift 44 onward.
    5. Take your time aiming. Switch on Aim First to move the peel with a tap, then press Stretch Crust. With a keyboard, use the arrows to aim, R to turn, and Enter or Space to stretch.

    Pause, Help, switching away and time between shifts freeze the tray and the clock. Finish your run to save a shared score. Signed-in players save automatically; guests can choose a nickname. Practice runs keep a device best only.

    Know the tray

    Melted cheese: draw through this open space.
    Growing crust: a moving topping can break it and cost one life.
    Mushroom: a moving topping to keep on the unbaked side.
    Pepperoni: a moving topping that can break growing crust.
    Olive: a moving topping to keep on the unbaked side.
    Basil: claim its square for points and more time.

    Scoring example

    Each newly baked square earns 5 points; each claimed basil leaf earns 125. Serving at 72% earns shift number × 250 + 4 × whole seconds remaining. For example, 100 squares and one leaf on shift 2 with 40 whole seconds left earns 500 + 125 + 500 + 160 = 1,285 points.

    One 100-second clock carries across pizzas. Basil adds 10 seconds per leaf on shifts 1–13, 8 on 14–23, 6 on 24–33, 4 on 34–43, and 2 from shift 44; the clock never exceeds 100 seconds.

    Three lost lives or an empty clock ends the run. A crust that finishes on the expiry tick can still claim basil and rescue the clock, or serve before time ends. Pause, Help, switching away and intermissions freeze the clock.

    Ranked play needs a verified server session and a finished run. Signed-in scores save automatically; guests choose a nickname. If the network pauses, retry the same checkpoint or deliberately switch to practice. Practice only keeps a best score on this device and cannot enter the shared board.

    Advanced rules and recovery

    Each stretch grows in both directions until it joins baked cheese or crust. If a topping hits a growing arm, one life is lost; an arm already joined stays safe. Only regions without moving toppings bake. You can finish after a serve to bank the score, or take the remaining time into the next shift. A failed save can be retried with the same session; starting a new ranked run replaces an unfinished one.
